What Do You Call It When Someone Scores 4 Goals?

[IPostedWhat]

This was a conversation on the local sports radio station today. They were asking why there isn't a term for scoring 4 goals like a hat-trick for 3 goals?

Then they were talking about possible names and asking people to call in with theirs.

They had the Sombrero Trick cause it's a big hat. The Mexican Hat-Trick, and the Gettysburg Trick because of of the whole "Four Score" thing.

Pretty slow day on the local sports news, I guess...Not sure why everything has to have a name or designation if it doesn't make a heck of a lot of sense.

It's cool man.

On one hand, not much is going on really in the NHL world to really talk about.

On the other hand, I didn't want to post a thread that would offend people who don't like anything that isn't someway realted to hockey.

It's a catch-22 I guess?

well, IDK about goals, but in baseball, when someone strikes out 4 times in a row, it's called a Golden Sombrero. Meanwhile a platinum sombrero is 5 and 6 is the titanium sombrero

I didn't realize how much influence the Mexican Culture had in our sporting terminology.

What do you call a game where a player scores 100 goal?

An I-Think-I-Just-Shat Trick.

Well if you get the hat trick and the fourth goal is an empty netter i'm sure some would like it called the "OV trick"
